tonespace 2.0 what is tonespace? it's a different, more intuitive music keyboard, combined with a chorder It supports over 50 different grids, 14 scales, 18 keys, 30+ chord types and 25 chord voicings it can function as a VST or Audio Unit plugin, processing incoming MIDI events and/or generating outgoing MIDI you don't need to use MIDI though: there is also a standalone executable which contains its own little synth for a fast start what can you do with it? audition and play chords while you move the mouse around in a grid-like space, or while using a traditional keyboard learn how musical scales and keys work, and how chords relate to these, using the simple octave-based spaces discover how chords map onto surprisingly simple geometric shapes in the more advanced spaces use chord-generation algorithms to fit chords to scales and keys automatically trigger chords from monophonic midi input and record the played chords using midi output what does it cost? demos & tutorials
Foster Gamble « Thrive Debunked By SlayerX3 One of the central passages of Thrive is a section often referred to as “Follow the Money,” which Thrive fans treat as some sort of slogan. This section contains Foster Gamble and others’ views on fractional reserve banking, the Federal Reserve, the economic crisis, and conspiracy theories related to these. This article debunks those ideas. Fraction Reserve Banking Disclaimer: Before the Wikipedia bashing begins, I’m using Wikipedia for two reasons: (1) Simplicity, and (2) it works well for summaries of information, even though I will provide further sources and more detailed information links than Wikipedia can provide. PS: This part of the movie is incredibly complicated for anyone involved here to deal with, as given that most people don’t understand how economy and politics work by themselves, much less together, unless you’re well-versed in mathematics, economics or political science. What is Fractional Reserve Banking? Does it really “create money out of nowhere?” Ms. G.
Las nuevas reglas de la creatividad Estoy obsesionado con la creatividad, con el proceso que tiene lugar en la mente de cara a obtener ideas innovadoras, y sobretodo con la forma de potenciarlo para que se engrane en otros procesos innovadores como por ejemplo el tecnológico (tecnocreatividad). Por eso me ha encantado este artículo de Wired: The new rules of Creativity. En él se describen nueve reglas para potenciar la creatividad, sin duda alguna uno de los diferenciales que buscamos en compañeros de equipo o de cara a nuevas incorporaciones laborales. Antes de meternos en faena vamos a recorrer un poco el universo que rodea la creatividad. Creatividad e inspiración La creatividad consiste en la generación de nuevas ideas y conceptos, que terminan o deberían terminar en soluciones concretas y originales, desde aplicaciones hasta esculturas, basadas en ideas y conceptos ya conocidos. Hay características que suelen ser comunes a los perfiles creativos, aunque algunas estén más potenciadas y otras se noten menos. 1. 1. 2.
AGE OF THE WHEEL: Circle of Fifths Chord Resource in Ableton Live If you've turned on the radio in the last 30 years or so, you've probably noticed that almost all pop music sounds the same: rigidly formulaic, predictable and yet, oddly pleasing and familiar. This is no accident. Our Western ears have been trained to like music built around the circle of fifths. I'm not an authority on music theory, but I've hacked together (from various resources) an Ableton Live session that can be used as a reference and compositional aid in this style. The session file is just a container for several midi clips organized around the circle of fifths. More exotic chord extensions are grouped under the track/note heading and can be used to substitute for any chord they're based on, in any chord progression or grouping. The beauty of Ableton Live's "object-oriented" session file format is that this container can be used to "inherit" from in your own session, by navigating to the session on disk, expanding individual tracks and dragging and dropping chord clips.
Manufacturing Consent: Noam Chomsky and the Media Manufacturing Consent: Noam Chomsky and the Media (1992) is a documentary film that explores the political life and ideas of Noam Chomsky, a linguist, intellectual, and political activist. Created by two Canadian filmmakers, Mark Achbar and Peter Wintonick, it expands on the ideas of Chomsky's earlier book, Manufacturing Consent: The Political Economy of the Mass Media, which he co-wrote with Edward S. Herman. The film presents and illustrates Chomsky's and Herman's thesis that corporate media, as profit-driven institutions, tend to serve and further the agendas of the interests of dominant, elite groups in the society. A centerpiece of the film is a long examination of the history of The New York Times' coverage of the Indonesian occupation of East Timor, which Chomsky says exemplifies the media's unwillingness to criticize an ally of the elite. Companion book[edit] Mark Achbar edited a companion book of the same name. See also[edit] External links[edit] Multimedia[edit] References[edit]
TecnoCreatividad, the next generation El viernes pasado impartí un taller en Valencia sobre la TecnoCreatividad, un término muy nuevo que está comenzando a sonar. La verdad es que fue muy curioso porque la invitación para darlo vino a través de The College of Everything, una escuela tecnocreativa (que viene del mundo creativo), y yo dirijo Digital Noise, una agencia tecnocreativa (que viene del mundo tecnológico) centrada en el desarrollo de aplicaciones sociales e I+D+i, y de la que os hablaré dentro de poco. Juntos generamos una buena convocatoria, un buen ambiente y creo que un buen contenido, por lo menos práctico, y la gente salió con fuerzas de querer indagar en este fascinante mundo que aúna la tecnología con la creatividad. Fue un curso privado (¡que se repetirá seguro!) Tecnocreatividad. Cross Media. Internet de las cosas. Twine (proyecto que salió de Kickstarter) Talking trees Tweeting fridge Motivación. Espero que por lo menos os haya abierto la curiosidad sobre este fascinante mundo de la TecnoCreatividad.
